Costco Michelin Guardian Wiper Installation on Ford 

Much thanks. I've been trying to get this done for a hour. The included directions are cryptic and virtually useless. I spent half my time just looking for a RU-vid to show me how. Finally found yours! Took all of 3 minutes to watch your video and get the job done.

Thank you for the simple directions! I struggled for an hour with the crappy instructions that came with the blades. Had them installed 5 minutes after watching your video.

Thank you very much, Allan. There are so many videos showing how to install windshield wiper and the only one that helps me to replace wiper on 2014 Ford Escape is your clear and understandable instruction here.

I was today years old when I learned how to do this thanks to you. I’ve had new wipers for months in the garage and my husband said they didn’t for my fusion..all we had to do was change the clip! Thank you so much!

Thank You! This worked on my son's 2017 Ford C Max! We couldn't figure it out until we watched your video! Spot on instructions!

This was the best video for a senior citizen woman who never could figure it out until I saw this bravo

I tried to install the wipers for a few minutes and decided some kind soul must have made a video of this. Thanks.

Thank you very much for this video. I struggled for about 15 minutes, before I decided to watch a video. As you mention, the instructions are worthless. I started to watch 2 other videos on installing Michelin wipers, but they used different clips. Once I watched your video, it took me less than 5 minutes to install the wiper on my 2017 Ford Fusion. It is worth noting, that the wiper doesn't slid down on the arm quite as far. When it wipes, the track is about 3/4" higher than the old one. That doesn't cause any problems, but I thought that your viewers should know. Thanks again.

Thank you! Ludicrous instructions from a company like Michelin. Have a Ford Focus and after struggling for 20 minutes found your video and finished the job in 3 minutes. After that it was Tequila time!👍

Thank you! I was having a hell of a time trying to figure this out. The instructions confused me even more. You made it extremely simple. Much appreciated!

Thank you so much. I was able to install mine in less than 5 minutes because of your video. You are awesome!

saved myself quite a bit of time and frustration using your video and avoiding the insert directions. 5 minutes and done! Thank YOU!!

So helpful. Your video was spot on...so much better than the written instructions. Thank you and well done.

Thank you for key words "slide into track". I must have looked at 10 videos before this one.

I can pull and rebuild your car engine. I can build you a house and do all of the electrical and plumbing. However, These wiper blades and instructions were not giving me a chance to succeed. You figured it out and made a clear and concise instructional video. You ARE THE MAN. Thank you. I thought I bought the wrong type for my 2014 Explorer. Thanks a gazillion !!!!!

excellent Instructions I struggled to understand the enclosed paper instructions for almost 45 minutes, watched your video and was able to do both sides in 5 min. Thanks!

I want to remind folks to put a towel on the windshield at the "strike point" where the spring loaded wiper arm might hit. It is easy to bump the arm while you are trying to load the clip and it will slap down and crack the windshield, I know because it happened to me!

Thank you very much for the video! I was a mechanic at Ford a long time ago, and couldn't easily figure it out, the Michelin site doesn't help. Glad I found your video. Every time I get Michelin wipers at Costco they change the adapters!!

2 hours and many cuss words and duct tape later trying to figure out the wipers I found this video and thank you soo much that was a lot easier then I thought and yes the directions are crap.

Installing these now… saved me another 20 minutes of frustration, you rock!

thank you.....i would never have figured it without your video

Thank you for actually explaining you don't need the adapter pieces. I was so god damn frustrated because every other video just skimmed over that part with no explanation

Allan - THANK YOU - I was about to return these to Costco and then found your video. Took about 2 minutes once I had your guidance. You wish the manufacturer would give better instructions - cuz like you said - their instructions were awful.

Finally a video worth watching. It worked for my 2020 Explorer while all the other videos I found were incorrect and misleading

Your the man ! Thanks so much.

Finally a video that actually works! Cheers🍻

YOUR A LIFE SAVER- sat in a rainy parking lot trying to figure it out so THX!!

Thank you. I wasn't sure which adapter to use. A two minute video and they were installed in minutes.

Thanks. Best video indeed for installation of the Michelin wipers from Costco.

This 2 minutes video saved me a ton of time trying to interpret the horrible directions!

Thank you! After blood and sweat (No tears) I found your video and did this in less than a minute. You're correct, the instructions do suck!

best of the videos showing how to install michelin wiper blades. you should do one on how to take them off now

the pinch style is not explained whatsoever for this model, thank god for this man.

Great video! Thanks! I really liked how the author throws out the instructions. It's very clueless and written in small print.

Thanks for saving me 17 minutes and 25 seconds!

Worked for 2021 Ford Explorer! Thank you!!!! Saved me a huge headache

Thank you very much, instructions did suck with Michelin, I knew I put mine on wrong, but I will fix it in the morning thanks to your video, I have a 2016 Ford Taurus Police Interceptor with wiper arms exactly like yours!! Thanks again for this video!!!

Better than the Michelin-provided videos. Thank you!!!

I was damn near ready to toss the things until I found this video. Thank you

Fantastic!! Never replaced my wipers before & did it with your video.. Worked exactly how you instructed.. Thank you🙌

Thank you! You're right, the instructions that come with these wipers suck. Best video for Costco Michelin replacement wipers install for a Ford or Lincoln.

Thank you so much for making this video! With your help and simple directions, you have saved me a lot of time and made my life easier 🙏🏽.

You are ABSOLUTELY right - the instructions SUCK!!! Most videos show a replacement on the "hook" arm. THANK YOU for the video.

Haha, it took you 20 minutes to figure it out. Took me that long to find your RU-vid Video. Thanks!!

THANKS for the help! I have a 2017 Ford Taurus and everything matched!

Thank you 2 hours later your video it took 5 min to install plus I lost the other medium bracket 👍👍

Mr Parsons. You are the man. Yes the directions are junk. Thank you for posting this.

Thank you so much for this video. I couldn't figure it out for hours. Saw this video and it took me less than 10 minutes. Thanks again

Thank you! The instructions do suck and your video saved a lot of cursing and throwing things! ;)

Thanks Allan! You saved me a lot of time and hassle. Yep....instructions suck! :) I have a 2019 Ford Fusion. It is exactly the same.

Thank you so much. My Volvo XC90 has the same wiper arms and it worked exactly as per your instructions,

Very helpful video. This is exactly the setup for my 2019 Ford Fusion. I don't think I could have done it with the lousy instructions provided by Michelin.

You are my super hero right now. My wife drives a Chevy Traverse with the same blade mounting mechanism and the prior blades didn't resemble this at all. You are right the paper manual is trash!

Thank you! This also works for a Ford Focus. Not sure I would've figured it out without your video.

Thank you so much. That was so easy and the instructions were only for a j hook arm.

You sir, are a lifesaver! Thank you

OMG!! Thanks! The video I watched first (actually for my 2015 Explorer) was so hard to follow (like the instructions) that I almost kicked my dog😳 Thank the CarGods that I found your video! Same exact wipers! Took me 15 minutes to mess with it, another 15 with the first video, and just 5 minutes once I found your video!!!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

I really like your video. It helps me a lot. I have a Toyota Sequoia 2010. I have look at several videos and it didn't help. I was going to return it until I saw your video. Really appreciate it.

Wow, thank you so much. It's so simple, but I was struggling for way too long

Thanks dude, I went through a number of videos that didn't help till now

Thank you for this video Allan. Perfect for my 2013 Ford Fusion. Impossible task until you see how it is done. First one i spent 45 mins with the printed instructions and gave up. Days later i found this video and both were on in less that 5 minutes.

Thank you. Saved me a lot of time

Right up to when I pressed the correct adapter I did not believe it would work, then click it was on. I didn't think it was actually on far enough but it was. Thank you.

Dude thank you! I got the same wiper blades from Costco and trying to change them on my wife's car. The instructions were absolutely terrible

Thank you SO much for this video. I had the old style blades from Costco and could not figure out how to get these on. After watching your video, I had them on in minutes. It took me longer to figure out how to get the small adapter piece out that I had already put on the new wiper because I thought I needed it. Thank you again.

Thanks so much Allan, you weren't kidding, the instructions do in fact suck. I was pretty much ready to start hitting things with a hammer.

Thanks man That was very useful Toyota Avalon 2011

Thanks brother, easy af after watching

Awesome video. Thanks so much for making this. Cheers!!!

Thank you for the great instructions. Saved me quite a bit of time.

I'm surprised they were using that style wiper arm on the 2012 Escape because my 2012 Fusion was still using the old style hook which was so much easier. My 2018 Fusion has the same style as the one in your video. I also tried using those Michelin brand wipers and the damn thing just wouldn't stay on. Tried using that adapter and still no luck. Got one at Costco on sale for $8 and the dealer wants $20 per.

Thanks for the video! Worked perfect on my 2014 fusion

Thank you, Allan - this helped so much!

Bless you for posting this🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Very helpful video. Thank you.

FYI, if you scan the QR code in Costco or on the instructions it will take you to actual video for you specific car model wipe install. I got mine installed in like then 5 mins without breaking anything.

2013 Escape. I used Michelin silicone blades, only came with 1 adapter but it case your confused, take the old one off like the video shows, don’t replace the clip that’s on the new wiper. Slide on and snap. Good luck lol I know it’s confusing sometimes

Thank you man! I was about to go back to Costco to return mine. Lol😂

Thank you!

If only Michelin could make a video like this. I thought I would have to return the wipers until I watched this video.

You are Amazing and thank you so much, Great work

Thank you! Worked like a charm!

Excellent video, the instructions that come with the blades really do suck! Installed them on a 2009 Escape and would have given up had it not been for this video!

Yep, you're a life saver. Thanks man!

It worked. Thanks for posting this video 👍

I was lost at first on your video but saw that the middle adapter you were talking about is already installed on my blade. Going to try to see if this works now. I also think the next time I am at Costco I am going to read them the riot act about incompetent instructions with the products they sell. This has been an issue going on for years now and somehow no one had done anything about it.

Thank You!! We would not have been able to replace the blades without this video.Your tutorial was fantastic, their instructions sucked.

thank you so much saved my afternoon!!!!!!!

Simply put. Thank you!

The instructions were beyond useless. I got so frustrated by using those garbage instructions and could not get my wipe blade installed on my 2014 Fusion. Thank you so much. I was using the wrong adapter piece so it wouldn’t lock correctly.

Thank you i spent 30 mins trying to figure out

God dang it you rock thank you!!! I was about to return them

Thanks so much, saved me!

Thanks It helps me to install on my 2012 Ford Focus

Thank you so much. Instructions are trash.

Thank you. It only took 2 minutes to do it. With out the video I won’t be able to do that.

Thanks for this vid!

A champion among men.

Perfect need ed this TODAY for my 2014 Taurus. Same wiper arm.

awesome Saved me a ton of frustration!
